Practical dilemmas of the probationary employment contract after the amendment of the Labor Code of 2023

The probationary employment contract is a useful legal instrument, allowing the parties to get to know each other and decide on further cooperation. Its regulation remained relatively simple and thus easy to use. The changes that were introduced to this contract as of 26 April 2023 constitute a serious impediment to the use of its advantages. Of particular relevance here is the unsuccessful regulation of the intention to employ for a fixed term after the end of the probationary period. This standardisation was not – in the form adopted by the Polish legislator – required by Directive 2019/1152. These changes may discourage the use of the probationary period contract and reach for a fixed-term contract instead.
